Chapter 1078: Chapter 1078: 20 ships, no more than that

"This is..."

"This is a white jade crystal, such a large piece!?"

Deng Yangbo looked at the white jade crystal in Lin Chen’s hand and exclaimed in shock.

As the vice chairman of the Bright Moon Commerce Guild in Tian Que City, it was Deng Yangbo’s first time seeing such a large piece of white jade crystal.

This type of crystal, when ground into powder and a minimal amount is added during artifact refining, can greatly improve the success rate and quality of the process.

The more you add, the greater the chance of improvement.

This rare material is extremely hard to find and worth a fortune, even a small pinch in powder form can sell at a high price.

Yet now, Lin Chen took out such a large piece directly.

Involuntarily, Deng Yangbo moved closer to Lin Chen, wanting to take the white jade crystal from him for a closer look at its quality.

To know, even within white jade crystals, the quality varies. High-quality white jade crystals have better effects in refining.

Seeing this, Lin Chen, however, withdrew his hand behind his back and did not hand the white jade crystal to Deng Yangbo for inspection. Instead, a smile appeared on his face.

"Concubine Ya, why are you still standing there? Quickly make some tea for this young friend."

Deng Yangbo reprimanded Concubine Ya, who was standing by.

Hearing this, Concubine Ya felt somewhat helpless. Wasn’t he the one who urged her to send away the guest just a moment ago?

"Young friend Lin Chen, please sit here and have some tea first. As for the flying boat, we can discuss it slowly."

Deng Yangbo spoke to Lin Chen with a calm tone.

After hearing this, Lin Chen smiled and nodded, then sat down.

Ordinarily, for Deng Yangbo, as the vice chairman, to meet with Su Yun and Lin Chen was already showing a lot of respect to Su Yun, the young master of the Su Family.

In terms of Deng Yangbo’s status, even the heads of the Four Great Families in Tian Que City must be courteous when meeting him.

However, after witnessing the white jade crystal in Lin Chen’s hand, his attitude changed.

This piece of white jade crystal was not only massive in size but also priceless.

Just its size alone was extremely rare, and with Deng Yangbo’s insight, even without a closer look, he could already tell it was a top-quality white jade crystal.

Such a white jade crystal would greatly benefit the refining of Seventh-Rank Magic Artifacts and above.

The difficulty of refining Seventh-Rank Magic Artifacts is extremely high, and ordinary white jade crystal powder has limited effect.

But this solid white jade crystal was different; adding it could significantly enhance the success rate of the refining process.

This meant that with this white jade crystal, the success rate of refining a Seventh-Rank Magic Artifact would increase substantially.

This white jade crystal would surely trigger a frenzy among Central State’s countless high-grade artifact refiners.

Possessing it meant having the capital to negotiate with the top artifact refiners in Central State.

Artifact refiners and alchemists, regardless of where they are, are highly respected.

With this white jade crystal, those artifact refiners might rush to curry favor with Deng Yangbo.

After all, successfully refining an extraordinary divine artifact is the dream of countless artifact refiners.

A Sixth Rank Peak artifact refiner can only advance their refining realm by successfully crafting a divine artifact.

Observing Deng Yangbo’s change in attitude, Lin Chen was not surprised, merely mocking inwardly, thinking this old man really is a money-grubber.

After the two sat down, Concubine Ya soon brought fragrant tea.

"Young friend Lin Chen, might I have a look at this white jade crystal stone?"

"Let me first evaluate its quality so I can give you a suitable appraisal."

Deng Yangbo, eyes fixed on the white jade crystal stone in Lin Chen’s hand, spoke with anticipation.

Upon hearing, Lin Chen handed the white jade crystal stone to Deng Yangbo.

With the reputation of the Bright Moon Commerce Guild, Lin Chen wasn’t worried that Deng Yangbo would play any tricks, as integrity is crucial in business.

Unless Deng Yangbo was willing to risk everything for this piece of white jade crystal, ignoring both Su Yun’s and his own identity.

"Please, senior."

Lin Chen handed the white jade crystal stone to Deng Yangbo.

"Little Brother Lin, if you don’t mind, just call me Old Brother Deng."

Deng Yangbo took the white jade crystal stone from Lin Chen’s hand and immediately smiled.

Su Yun and the nearby Concubine Ya were both shocked to hear Deng Yangbo’s words.

Is this the same high and mighty Chairman Deng they knew? Especially Concubine Ya, it was her first time seeing Chairman Deng being so amiable, completely overturning her perception of Deng Yangbo.

"Old Brother Deng, you’re too polite. See how many Third-Rank Flying Boats this white jade crystal stone can be exchanged for."

Lin Chen also followed Deng Yangbo’s lead, immediately switching to a brotherly address.

Hearing this, Su Yun and Concubine Ya were once again shocked, it seemed these two were indeed cut from the same cloth.

Su Yun suddenly felt that his understanding of Lin Chen was not deep enough, and that he had much to learn from Lin Chen.

"Little Brother Lin, this white jade crystal is of quite good quality. Older Brother here can exchange it for ten Third-Rank Flying Boats for you, how about it?"

Deng Yangbo looked at Lin Chen, speaking earnestly as if they shared a deep friendship, offering a "friendship price."

Hearing Deng Yangbo’s offer, Su Yun was shocked, not expecting the white jade crystal Lin Chen took out to be worth ten Third-Rank Flying Boats.

"Ten flying boats? Is Chairman Deng joking?"

"Since Chairman Deng offered this price, it seems we can’t reach a deal. I’ll have a look at the underground black market instead."

Lin Chen looked at Deng Yangbo, speaking calmly.

Before coming here, Lin Chen had already asked Su Yun about the underground black market’s situation and knew that the prices of treasures there wouldn’t be lower than at the Bright Moon Commerce Guild.

Hearing Lin Chen’s words, Deng Yangbo’s expression changed, realizing Lin Chen was not someone easy to deal with.

"Older Brother was just joking with you earlier, how about twenty Third-Rank Flying Boats? This is already the highest price."
